Cooldown/Stretch

This was a recycled class from Bootcamp Session 1, but shh – don’t tell.  I don’t think anybody noticed!

A couple last points for tonight:

1.  Shoulder update – thank you to all who keep asking.  My shoulder is feeling better this week.  Last week it straight out was hurting and was very painful.  This week I can feel it ache/a little tender, but it is nowhere near the level of hurting it was for the past two.  I didn’t modify when I taught Kix on Tuesday, and this morning I even used a set of… wait for it… THREE POUNDERS… for biceps and triceps.  I usually use tens or twelves.  Dammit, baby steps.  Anyways, I’m feeling hopeful.  I think it’s thanks to The Stick.

2.  This week I created a Fitness & Feta Facebook page!  Check it out.  I decided that once I reached my 50 posts or 50 followers goal I was going to stop linking to my private facebook account (definitely bogging down my personal page) and link instead to a public Fitness & Feta page.  Hopefully this will be better for advertising, once people “Like” it.  So go ahead, like my page on Facebook.  I dare ya!

Time for a glass of red wine (I really need it today) and the season premiere of It’s Always Sunny in Philadelphia with Tim, Brett, and Jamie.  Have a great night everyone, it’s almost the weekend!
